UUADV SPEAKS Prince Unpen was frequently mention ea. as an advantageous outlet for the Peace River country at the debate In the House of Commons on the matter last week in Ottawa. In the course of the debate It was pointed out by Hon. C A. Dunning, minister of railways, that the .shortest and least costly route would be the one through the Monkman Pass which wculd have Prince Rupert as Its terminus. Several Conservative mem Ders made enquiries as to Ihe Brule cut-off route to the Vancouver outlet which, Uy seemingly favored In spite of the minister's statements. ?. C. Brady. MP. for Skeena, spoke as fallows In the debate: Before I deal with the subject under discussion. Mr. Speaker. I would like to disassociate from It the minister of railways (Mr. Dunning). I believe he has given us not his own opinion but what Information he has obtained from report made to him. "Having done this, I would like to enumerate the various reasons advanced from the report, why the development of the Peace River district should not be commenced Immediately.

It was said that the president nd engineers of the Can adian National Railways did not deem It n economic possibility; that It would net lower the present rates; that It would cost about S13.000.000 and that the present volume of traffic does not permit the development of this district. would like to ask the House If an; one of these reasons has sufficient weight to prevent this necessary development of the greatest agricultural area In Canada. Without going Into figures. !r. Speaker. I think I could give four or five reasons which would make the ?civernment consider the necessity of Immediately dealing with this question.

The hon. member for Peace River (Mi.
